The people of North Dakota have overwhelmingly supported free school lunch. To all that are not in favor, where do you suggest this money goes instead? If not into education where should it go?

Not take it from the tax payer in the first place?

Not where I'd like to be

How about back in my pocket?
I have no problem paying for whatever my family needs. That's my responsibility. I don't need to pay for everyone else. There's far too much of that crap going on in this country already. Nothing is "free".

I somehow with my limited skill set, basic education, and terrible personality have always somehow figured out how to feed my 4 kids without needing my neighbor to step in. I knew off the bat, having a kid meant I needed to feed, clothe, and care for them.
This is the thing that needs to be hammered home. Maybe teach this in school.

I have no doubt it will pass. People think free means free. Your comment makes it sound like there is a pile of money that didn't once come from a taxpayer that we need to spend. I am all for giving people a hand up but making more people dependent on government welfare is not good for anyone. Everyone that is getting help should be striving to get off of it so they can make it on their own.

man, this is really quite the question
Instead of not taxing we the people unnecessarily or even returning it to we the people, I think we should instead of free lunches for everyone just open up some free learing centers and free daycares, and amend the ND constitution to prohibit any and all investigations into the free learing centers and daycares. We would have criminals policing the criminals, what could possibly go wrong?

I cant wait to vote down the elimination of property taxes again! The government is neat!
